John is extremely dedicated. I trained with him for over a year with over 100 sessions. He really understood what a struggle it was for me to lose weight and was constantly changing my workouts so I could achieve better results. I had confidence in his knowledge and felt he really wanted me to reach my goals. He expects a lot and gets down to business so don’t think training with him will be easy. I liked to be challenged so I highly recommend his training for serious people!

I’ve been training with John for a number of months now, he was recommended to me a while after a shoulder injury that has been bothering me for some time. While training I’ve been able to learn a ton about how the body works, and have been taught a number of new exercises and movements that have really improved my workouts and rehab past injuries. He’s extremely knowledgeable and passionate about training and I would highly recommend working with him.

After a lower back injury, I started training with John to rebuild strength in my core and prevent further injury. He introduced a program focused on stability, mobility, and strength, which I tracked using his app. Each workout phase lasted 4 weeks, allowing me to hit new personal records on lifts and greatly improve my form and core strength. John was always available to explain the exercises and their purposes, enhancing my understanding and results. I highly recommend John for his deep knowledge, responsiveness, and effective training methods.

I trained with John Fasulo for about 8 months. John is truly an expert in his field and I enjoyed every session. He pushes you to your limits but understands your limits. Every session is a bit different and tailored to your body, strengths and weaknesses. I felt my body responding and getting stronger with every session. Looking forward to working with him again at some point. He is an extremely knowledgeable trainer.

John has greatly improved my physical performance- strength, endurance and balance. He takes the time to assess my weaknesses and implements a plan to fix the issues in an encouraging way. I recommend him highly.

John Fasulo is the best trainer I’ve ever had, hands down! As a runner with two herniated discs, lower back pain was a constant issue. I had tried other trainers who failed to address my specific needs and worsened my condition with inappropriate workouts. John was different. He listened to my concerns and tailored the sessions to focus on strengthening my core and stabilizing my back, particularly during long runs. His approach not only avoided further injury but also optimized my performance. Within just two sessions, I felt a dramatic improvement —John’s attention to my body’s responses and his adjustments made all the difference. He educated me on engaging my entire body correctly during exercise, which brought me to peak condition. I’m incredibly grateful for his expertise and highly recommend him.

If you are cleared physical therapy, recovering from surgery or an injury I highly recommend John. His knowledge and experience was extremely helpful in my recovery process. We focused on core strengthening, balance and light weight lifting while maintaining excellent form and posture. We discussed my full medical history and John was aware of all my concerns throughout our training program. I highly recommend him for whatever type of training you’re looking for.

Each session is rewarding, leaving me eager for the next and still feeling the burn.

I started my training with John last year. He is always prepared for every training session. During the training, he is patient, encouraging, and makes sure my postures are correct and effective. Also, he always gives effective suggestions on how to alleviate the soreness. Ever since I started training with him, I gained muscles on my biceps, triceps, and glute. My core definitely becomes a lot stronger. Best trainer ever !!

My girlfriend and I first encountered John during a rooftop cross fit class at Fit Mission Beach before the gym opened, and we were so impressed by his deep knowledge and engaging style that we decided to sign up with him as our personal trainer. We started our weekly sessions in September, enjoying the personalized approach John brought to each workout. Not only did he tailor the sessions to our individual needs, but he also helped us understand the importance of proper alignment to prevent injuries. John’s ability to work on specific weaknesses and his broad experience with clients at all levels—from amateurs to professional athletes —make him an outstanding trainer. His friendly personality and the new skills we gain from each session truly enhance our fitness journey. We highly recommend John for anyone serious about their health and performance.

My experience with having John as my trainer has been nothing but positive! He is extremely knowledgeable in his field and really takes the time to educate you on the ‘why’ behind everything we do during our workouts. I can tell he is so passionate about what he does and genuinely cares about his clients’ success. He celebrates the small victories and continues to push you to the next level and challenge yourself while staying patient. I have been training with John for over six months and feel stronger than ever and more educated on how to tone your body in a healthy way. So happy to have found him!

I started training with John months ago after a surgery weakened my body and have had great results in such a short time. I have previous sports injuries and he was able to work around those while still producing results. He came up with multiple different ways to work the same area while progressing the difficulty with my growth. I was sad to have to stop training with him due to a job relocation. He’s very knowledgeable and I would definitely recommend John to anyone.

I’ve been training with John Fasulo for about a year and I can’t say enough good things about him. I had a lot of apprehension when I signed up for personal training for the first time and his inclusive, non-judgmental, and friendly demeanor put me at ease right away. He’s extremely knowledgeable about training methodology which comes through in his focused, matter-of-fact style. While very informative, he also keeps our training sessions fun and engaging. He’ll push you just the right amount, and more importantly help you to push yourself. This is absolutely the guy you want if you’re serious about meeting your fitness goals.

John was my personal trainer for over a year. When my daughter moved here, he worked with us together. John is extremely knowledgeable about the body and nutrition. He never asked me to do anything that he wasn’t willing to do himself. I’m in my mid-50s, and he treated me with kindness and respect. However, he didn’t lax up on me when I tried to pull the old lady card:-). I truly enjoyed working out with John. He taught me so much, and I still use his training tips today. I highly recommend working with John. He will get you into your best possible physical self. Plus, he’s an all-around great guy.

When I came to John six weeks ago, I was at my lowest point ever in terms of fitness - I was stiff, weak and overweight. John has given me a program that strips everything back to basics that I can build on over time as my strength and fitness improve. I am already feeling stronger and leaner as a result. John has also taught me to develop and use all those lazy parts of the body to stop my over-reliance and further damage to knees, etc. John is without doubt the best personal trainer I have worked with - he has armed me with a regime that makes sense to me and that I can stick with for life.

I rarely write a review and only do so when earned. John deserves to be recognized as one of San Diego’s top trainers and it will not surprise me if a collegiate or pro team picks him up for their strength and conditioning program. John was recommended to me by a gym rep to help me push through a plateau as well as address some injury rehab and prevention. After sitting down to discuss strategies and goals, it became apparent John had a solid grasp of not only the implementation of the training but the theory behind the training. After our sessions, we consistently sat down, at times for over an hour, discussing sport- specific training techniques and routines. After working with John, I could tell he’s not just punching the clock...that nutrition and training is not just his vocation but his advocation. John appears to have a true passion for helping individuals achieve their highest training capacity and that’s why I can without hesitation recommend him regardless of fitness level or training goals.

My experience with John has been life-changing! I came to John after not working out for several years. I needed to lose weight and get in shape. I was blown away at his approach and the results were amazing. John was very focused not only on getting results but teaching me very professionally and thoughtfully how to work out properly. He was very methodical and within about 3 months I was in full-blown workout getting incredible results. I would suggest you schedule at least one workout so you can experience his tremendous knowledge and skills as a personal trainer. Very highly recommend him!

After a challenging period in my life involving substance issues, I returned to John to reclaim my health. Four years ago, he started me on a path of physical recovery that was deeply personalized. John’s attention to detail and his methodical approach to training not only rehabilitated my body but also restored my spirit. He broke down each exercise to ensure proper form and function, from posture correction to the intricacies of each movement. John’s ability to tailor workouts specifically to my needs, despite my fears of not being ‘enough,’ exemplifies his dedication as a healer and coach. His phrase, ‘learn to love the suck,’ perfectly captures his tough yet supportive training style. John is truly the best trainer I’ve ever worked with.

I trained with John Fasulo for 7 months before I had to leave San Diego. Beyond just training, he is a warm and friendly person and an enthusiastic trainer. He designed a personal plan tailored to my needs and consistently adapted the methods and weights based on my body language, which is crucial for someone who is neither a complete rookie nor a seasoned athlete. I never got bored while training with him. Despite having trained by myself for four years, the techniques I learned from John were entirely new to me. His creativity and experience enabled me to build muscle more efficiently and productively.

Best personal trainer ever. John has his professional methods and tools that fit all different kinds of requests. For me, I do personal training for golf to improve my shots. I need to increase power in some small muscle groups. John has done great work that even impressed my golf coach.

John is among the top trainers in San Diego, excelling in physical therapy and personal training. I started training with him due to injuries that hindered my normal workouts, and his customized approach led to significant mobility improvements and lasting health benefits.

John’s deep understanding of both physical training and nutrition, coupled with his genuine care for clients, makes each session both educational and motivational. Highly recommended for anyone committed to enhancing their health and fitness.

John’s approach extends beyond the gym; he’s adaptable, creating effective workout plans for when I travel, maintaining my progress with tailored exercises.
